Some person, We know not whom, has
brought together the following in relation
10 the action of vegetables on the human
system. There is no doubt that diet Is gen.
orally better than drugs.
Spinach has direct effect upon COM
plants Of the kidneys.
The common dandelion, used as greens,
ia excellent for the same trouble.
Asparagus purges the blood. Celery acts
admirably upon the nervous system and Il
cure for rheumatism and neuralgia.
Tomatoes act upon the liver.
Beets and turnips are excellent appetizers.
Lettuce and cucumbers ara cooling in
their effect upon the system.
Onions garlic, leeks, olives and shallots,
oil of which are similar, possess medical yir-
tues of marked character, stimulating the
circulatory system, and the consequent in.
crease Of the saliva and the gastric juice pro-
noting digestion.
Red onions are an excellent diuretic, and
the white ones are recommended eaten raw
as remedy for insomnia. They are tonic
and nutritious.
A soup made from onions is regarded By
the French as On excellent restorative in de-
bility of the digestive organs.

Lock Out For n Swindier.
A man, giving the name of Fraak s.
Thayer, is travelling through New Jersey
and Pennsylvania swindline people by
new and ingenious plan. He represents
himself as an agent Of Stern Bros. Com
mission Branch, Sixth avenue, New York
city, and presents his card as such, there
by creating the impression that be repre-
sents Stern Bros, the weEl-known dry
goods firm of West Esd street, New York.
He either solicits subscription to ''Le
Monitenr de Mode, subscription price to
be paid to himself, or makes contract TO
send patterns, fancy goods or cloaks on
commission, allowing very liberal per
centage. generally 40 per cent, but in
every case be collects the cost Of packing
and shipping, ranging from six to ten
dollars, at the time of making the agree
ment. He gives bis victims receipts aud
agreements signed BY himself, and hay-
ing the name of Stern Bros. printed there
on. II is needless to soy that the papers,
patterns or other goods never put in an
appearance, and that he has no connec-
ton with the above arm, who never en-
ploy any agents or travellers When last
heard from he was in the western part OF
Pennsylvania. He is described as young
man, well dressed and very gcntlemanly,
aud should be looked after and arrested
by the authorities.

Senator MCPHERSON is reported to have
acknowledged the shortcomings of the
Democratic Administration, and to have
said 81 do not look upon the Democra-
tic prospects for 1883 with as much conf
dence as some do. Look at my own State
of New Jersey. There you see man
elected for six years to the Senate who
got but three Democratic votes, aud yet
he is Democrat. The Republicans put
him in. Certainly that shows comp lete
depressing of party lines and organiza-
tions."

Some Of our Democratic friends affect
to see in the failure of tho Senate to con-
firm Judge Wescott, of Camden, deter
mination to punish that gentleman for
his ''anti-railroad' record. The Judges
record, in this particular, Is by no means
SO luminous as his admirers would have
US believe and the claim set up in his be-
half is purely fantastic. Judge Wescoit
has distinguished himself as an actiye and
offensive partisan. He has been politi-
clan In season and out of season and,
while he was holding the Office of Law
Judge, he acted rs Temporary Chairman
Of the Democratic State Convention and
made q fiery demagogical speech. Such
man Is grossly unfit to serve on the
bench. II President Cleveland's dsfini.
ton OF an unfit candidate for public office,
or an unfit public officer, means anything,
1t means that Wescott never should have
been re- nominated and should not be con-

more than ordinary interest will be con-

A New Railroad Talked or.
The Philadelphia papers few days ago
announced that the Reading r. r. Co.
had decided to abandon control Of the
Bound Brook and North Pennsylvania
Railroads. owing to the bondholders Of
these roads refusing to come into the re-
organization of the Reading Company,
and had decided to built railroad from
Newtowneto Remington, there to con-
meet with the South Branch r. r., thus
forming through line from Philadelphia
to New York.
A special dispatch TO a Trenton paper
says that the Company does not intend to
build road to Pennington, but win build
an airline route to New York.
The Nsrtoasa PAL Enterprise says
"a party Of engineers In the employ Of
the Reading Railroad Company have been
engaged during this week Ia running a
| line from the terminus Of the Newtown
| Railroad TO the Delaware at point op-
posite what was formerly the terminus OF
| the Mercer and Somerset road Ia New
| Jersey. This road extended from. the
river to Millstone, N. j., where Il con
nected with road that tapped the main
| line OF the Pennsylvania road to New
Brunswick. The road from the river to
Milestone was abandoned by the Pennsyl-
yiania Company some years ago, the rails
taken up, and 1t is now occupied as the
! bed Of county road. The survey across
| from Newtown follows very nearly sim
liar survey made some years ago. The
atmosphere is now full of railroad rumors,
and what this survey means II Is difficult
to know. We offer no opinion"
| SO there appears to be three different
stories out as to what the company In
tends to do. The most probable thing is
| that the company simply intends game
Of ''bluff," 80 40 to compel the bond
holders OF the Bound Brook r r. TO come
to terms.
